Run Run Baby

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

"Theres going to be a pop up! I know it." I said while nervously biting my nails and waiting for something on the screen. I was watching this horror movie on Netflix, and I could just feel a popup approaching, based on the suspenseful playing in the background. "Get ready for dinner!" Aria my 23 year old sister ordered while stepping out of the washroom. "I don't wanna go" I whined before turning back to the tiny tv, just as the ugliest inhumane face I've ever seen popped up on the screen.

A scream left my mouth and I fell backwards off my bed. I heard my sisters laugh coming from the washroom again and I let out a frustrated sigh. I'd have to get up sooner or later. The only reason my sister actually wants to go, is the fact that her mate is beta of the Dusk pack. My sister and I used to live in Australia, but moved to this isolated forest area, because my sister met her mate named Ian, on his trip to Melbourne.

"Could you be any slower Maya? Get ready!" She yelled again. "We can't be rogues forever, and plus my mates the beta! We have a right to live there! Maybe you'll even find your mate.." "Ew ew ew ew. I am praying to the goddess that I do not." I said while dropping the magazine I had started to flip through, onto my face. "I don't get how you can get so mushy gushy just by staring at some guy you know nothing about" I mumbled, knowing that she could still hear me with her heightened wolf senses. I honestly found mates so stupid. What if I didn't want one? Unfortunately, you see, in our world I don't exactly have much of a choice.

"I cannot wait until you find your mate. You're going to fall in love." She said in a dreamy daze. "You sound like a 12 year old" I called at her before gagging and walking into the bathroom. "Get dressed stupid!" She replied laughing and finally making her way to her own room.

It was about an hour later that we were ready and heading towards the pack house. I was wearing a white dress that was tight at the top but flowed out at my waist, down to just above my knees. I paired it up with white pumps and no jewelry. Unless my everyday leather wrist band was considered as jewelry, although its something I never take off. Aria was wearing a red dress with a v-line, that stopped at her knees and paired it with black wedges. In all honestly she probably looks a million times better then I do.

"It was so cu-hello Maya? Are you even listening to me?" I heard Aria say, snapping me out of my thoughts."Hm? Yeah yeah." I mumbled staring out of the window. "You look so pretty Maya" she said from behind the wheel, her rant thankfully forgotten. "Thanks, you look much better than me though" I replied truthfully. "Don't be silly. That white dress and your tanned legs, damn. I wont be surprised if all the guys want to claim you." She said with a grin. "There wont be any guys." I replied dryly, while staring out the window. "Not yet. 'Cause you're waiting for your mate!" She sang. "Haha no" I said humourlessly putting an end to this argument.

Eventually we pulled up to a huge mansion, not that I was surprised. It seemed to be about 4 floors from the drive way we were currently on. "So dinners going to be with Ian, Mason, and the third in command, Lucas." "Okay." I replied simply, not even bothering to ask how she knew all their names. They are the strongest pack in North America and theres no point in lying I was scared to see how intimidating the alpha would be.

Suddenly, the door opened up revealing a middle aged women who had a kind smile on her face. "Good evening girls!" She said greeting us. "Hi" I replied while flashing her a small smile, even though I was silently praying for this dinner to finish quickly. Eventually we made our way to the living room where everyone was sitting except for the Alpha himself. I greeted everybody with a bow of respect and soon we made our way to the dining room. We all sat down at the table and the Alpha came very soon after. Everybody stood up to show respect, although I couldn't find myself to do so. It felt like I was glued to my seat.

Suddenly an intoxicating smell similar to one of fresh rain and amazing cologne invaded my senses. I took in a deep yet quiet breath, wanting to know what provided this scent. Knock out of it! I mentally gave myself a quick lecture. Quickly coming to my senses, I urgently stood up with shaky legs. I do not plan to die today. "Greetings Alpha, I'm Aria Vega" Aria said respectfully while shaking his hand.

He gave Aria a slight nod before turning towards me. I quickly looked down. I couldn't help it. The way his eyes had an intimidating glow, scared the living crap out of me. I felt butterfly's erupt in my stomach and knew that this was not a good sign. It felt like his eyes were burning into my skin. My wolf was trying to encourage me to look up. The faster I look up, the faster this will be over with, I told myself. Taking a deep breath, I could feel my body betraying me, especially with everyones eyes scanning my every action.

"Look at me." Alpha Mason growled lowly, due to my lack of respect.  A shiver ran down my spine and I lifted my head up so fast to look at him, that I felt dizzy. "Good evening Alpha." I said avoiding his hand, and looking to his right. I hope he wouldn't mind.. He suddenly stuck his hand out, expecting me to shake it. Aw crap. Who was I kidding? I nervously yet firmly placed my hand in his and a shock of electricity practically soared through my veins. A quiet gasp escaped my lips and we locked eyes. This time I couldn't look away.

We have found our mate! My wolf purred in joy. I, on the other hand grabbed the end of my chair for a better grip. Man this could seriously not be happening right now. No no no no. This is all a dream. No, nightmare.

My mate can't be him.

His grip on my hand tightened, most likely indicating that this was actually happening. I snapped out of my faze and tried to pretend that I was not affected, quickly taking a seat. Meanwhile Mason made his way to the head of the table. Everyone started to eat and get to know each other, but I could only make small talk due to the fact that I felt Mason's eyes on me the whole time.

Once everyone was done, Mason, Connor, Aria and I, all went to Mason's office to talk about our acceptance into the pack. It wasn't long before he accepted us and honestly I doubt he wouldn't after tonights 'fantastic' discovery. "I'm sure you would like to move in with Connor, Aria." He paused for a moment before adding on "Stay the night here and tomorrow I will send pack members to fetch your guys stuff. I assume you guys don't have much?"

"Yes not much at all." My sister said. Even though I hated the situation I was in right now, I couldn't help but be thankful that we were now in a pack. If we didn't get accepted into this pack I don't know what I would have done. I actually liked living the free life and not being under the influence of pack rules, but Aria? She couldn't handle it. I guess thats what makes us so different. We've been on the move since our mothers death and our fathers disappearance, so when Aria found her mate I was truly happy for her, she deserves this.

As for me, I plan on leaving this place in a couple of months and not drag Aria with me. "We would love to stay the night" my sister said interrupting my thoughts. "Speak for yourself." I muttered ever so quietly, hoping no one caught it. Although I felt eyes on me.

"You obviously know where you're going to sleep, so I'll just show your sister her room." Mason replied to Aria. Immediately Aria stepped out of the room with her mate, shutting the door without another word to me. Wow thanks sis. What happened to sisters before misters? I was quick to stand up and follow but my mate blocked my way before I could take another step. My eyes trailed up his muscular chest and I looked straight up at him. His height towering over my small figure.

"Leaving so soon princess?" He asked smugly, a twinkle in his deep blue eyes. Geez what happened to the stone faced guy?

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck.

Adios.
